2. I first created the template for my
double page spread. Over the second
page on the write I drew one large text
box and left clicked. Once left clicked I
changed the settings for columns and
changed them into 2 columns.
3. I drew an image box covering the
whole left side of the page. I imported
the edited image of the singer of the
band and once it was imported I made
the image box larger and scaled the
image to fit the box. I then resized and
cropped the image and postioned it.
4. Using the text tool I then created the
title of the page. My title was “NEW
KYDD ON THE BLOCK”. I chose the font
for title and made it larger to stand out
more. The word “KYDD” is the singers
last name and I changed the font of this
word to show higlight the humorous side
of the title.
5. I then using the text box, wrote a drop
quote on the image and centered it. I
changed the font and changed the
colour to white to match the other text
on the image. I also imported a small
image of the masthead of the magazine
and positioned it in the bottom right of
the page alongside the page number.
6. I then wrote S in a text box and
resized the box so it was large
and then changed the font to a
larger number so it would be the
background for the text. Then I
created the byline at the top of
the page in the centre saying
“UK’s Biggest Upcoming Band 23
Fake Street”. I changed the colour
of the band name to red. Both
sides of the byline I created lines
using the line tool to make it
stand out more.
7. As I had wrote out the interview on
microsoft word, I left clicked the text box I
created and imported the text from the
word document and it automatically put
the text into the 2 columns. As I needed
the first letter of the article to be a drop
cap, I clicked next to the letter and found
the drop cap settings and changed the size
of the letter “T” and how many lines it
would cover and changed that to 6 lines.
